My Gift Back To You: Blogger Spotlight

Catheroominations by Catheroo

Catheroo wrote a fantastic entry about “channeling Winona Ryder” and learning a very unusual lesson after her experience and then being caught -

I still vividly remember the gaudy rhinestone and blue crystal necklace that I would wear to play dress up. And I was convinced the jewels were real and so happy to show them off and tell the story of how cool it is to steal stuff because then you get even better stuff when you bring back what you originally stole! Awesome!

She also made me drool a little and want her to invite me over when she tests out the new cake pan she received. And yes, Catheroo, eating one cupcake is still okay! Especially when you share it with me.

Don’t Take the Repeats by Canape

(Who, by the way, is one of the many poor souls who lost a banner from my designs due to some JACKASS who abused my “free hosting” offer on my free blogger designs and ran my bandwidth up to where I could not afford it. I’m sorry, Canape.)

Canape has documented some boxes delivered to her that were packed by her former mother-in-law. It’s amazing reading about the treasures she is finding:

There were my school annuals from 1980-1983. The fun there was reading the signatures and having Guy almost pass out when he was reminded that his first year of college was when I was in the fourth grade. That’s always good for a laugh. Never gets old. Unlike Guy. Who is old now.

(HA! Wait. I’m older than MrZ. Maybe I shouldn’t laugh.)

My mother’s violin was in the box. It was the violin she had when she was four. Somewhere I have an audio tape of her playing that violin, and it is far more entertaining and useful than the actual violin. Perhaps I can find a nice shelf to display it upon, and then curse when I have to dust it weekly.

Make sure you also read about her Beauty Queen Mother. It’s a keeper.

If you want to be spotlighted, feel free to donate to my bail and forward me the receipt. I’ll put you in the lineup!

    I am also older than my husband. Something he delights in pointing out!

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
